Stayed with three girlfriends while attending a runway show across the street in Bryant Park. Hotel location perfect for on-time attendance at the show; just a hop, skip and jump away. Room was generously sized, with an exceptionally large bathroom featuring a soaking tub, walk in shower and full size sink vanity. The reception staff very gracious and helpful with even simple things, like the address of a restaurant where we were having dinner. The Cellar Bar, located inside the hotel, was a trendy hot spot perfect for hanging out after dinner for drinks and dancing. Patrick, the bellman, was eager to help us on an early Saturday morning, willingly offering to hold our bags while we had breakfast at a great place he suggested and gave us the perfect advice for making sure our car was pulled right around as we arrived back from breakfast. He had us all loaded up and ready to go in no time. Only two small areas for improvement: The "free drink" vouchers given to us upon our arrival were not accepted in the bar for some unknown reason and the bellman on duty on Friday night directed us to walk up a block to hail a cab, rather than getting one for us. Not a big deal, but a pain in the neck on a very cold night in the city. Overall, our expectations were exceeded and we will return on our next trip to the city.
